What Is Gebel Kamil Meteorite?

Gebel Kamil is a nickel-rich iron meteorite associated with Kamil crater in southwestern Egypt. The crater was identified in satellite imagery in 2008, and subsequent investigations documented meteorite fragments around the impact site.

Classified as an ungrouped iron meteorite, Gebel Kamil has a chemical composition that does not place it within an established iron meteorite group. Many recovered pieces are shrapnel fragments produced when the meteorite struck Earth, connecting these specimens directly to an impact event.

To protect your specimen, keep it dry and avoid water, cleaning products and aerosols. Its iron content makes careful storage essential to help prevent rust. Follow the care instructions provided with your piece.
